| CENTRALE | Centrale station is the place where local and Global meets. This area hosts variety of patterns, people and activities throughout the day mostly related with commuting, working and playing. You can spot people from different socio-economic backgrounds ranging from well-dressed guests of fashion industry to homeless people sleeping in the corners of the street, station-building and piazza. This diversity can be further observed in the retail outlets; from high brand shop-fronts to cheap supermarket, and similarly, expensive restaurants and local corner coffee-shops serving a multitude of people. There is a high sense of international as well as local spirit in Centrale which makes this place so vibrant and unique for Milan. One can easily spot local commuters, visitors from other Italian cities, European cities and also other parts of the world. The piazza has a strong presence of immigrants who have localized themselves as reflected by their fluency in Italian language and add to the vibrancy of the space with their informal activities. Last but not the least, the area is diverse also in terms of its buildings. Centrale station itself is a heritage building, accompanied by many others in the vicinity. The whole area is punctuated by modern buildings, vernacular buildings with different architectural programs ranging from offices spaces, hotels and retail to residential spaces. • Credits | Group 8: Felici Fioravanti Geronimo, Machaidze Elene, Shaishmelashvili Mariami, Tarwani Ahsaas

HIV

Human Immunodeficiency Virus

HIV 

is found throughout all the tissues of the body but is transmitted through the body fluids of an infected person (semen, vaginal fluids, blood, and breast milk).

HIV is a virus that attacks immune cells called CD-4 cells (https://aidsinfo.nih.gov/understanding-hiv-aids/glossary/113/cd4-t-lymphocyte) which are a subset of T cells. AIDS (https://www.healthline.com/health/hiv-aids/symptoms-men) is the syndrome, which may or may not appear in the advanced stage of HIV infection. HIV infection can cause AIDS to develop. However, it is possible to contract HIV without developing AIDS. Without treatment, HIV can progress and, eventually, it will develop into AIDS in the vast majority of cases.

HIV

is a retrovirus that infects the vital organs and cells of the human immune system.

The symptoms of early HIV infection may include:

•fever

•joint pain and muscle aches

•sore throat

•unintentional weight loss

•thrush

 (https://www.medicinenet.com/thrush/article.htm)It is important to remember that these symptoms appear when the body is fighting off many types of viruses, not just HIV. However, if you have several of these symptoms and believe you could have been at risk of contracting HIV in the last few weeks, you should take a test.

Key to Philippines' Success: Restoring the true Filipino

The following contexts (Historical, Political, and Cultural) were inspired by President Manuel L. Quezon’s Address on Policies and Achievements of the Government and Regeneration of the Filipino last August 19, 1938:

Historical Context:

Historical Context of the Speech

Manuel Luís Quezon y Molina was the first president of the Commonwealth of the Philippines by the year 1935 to 1944. His speech described the 1938 Philippines' state of affairs and fully depicted the Filipino's strength and weaknesses during that time. It was also implied that the Government that time was in its prime and any trace of corruption was not present.

Political Context of the Speech

“My eager purpose has been to give vitality and power to democratic processes and to adapt them to the ever exacting demands of the complex social and political problems of our day.” … “I have scrupulously maintained religious freedom and the separation of Church and State. I have safeguarded free thought, free expression, and the unabridgeable right of the people to work, and to possess and enjoy the fruits of their toil.” … “I have not tolerated corruption, inefficiency, or injustice in public office; and I pledge myself to persevere in my efforts to sweep every nook and cranny of the Government clean of every deleterious influence that might impair the vitality of the body politic. I have kept the public finance in a sound condition and have succeeded materially in introducing approved business practices in the management of the people’s money.”

These statements taken from Manuel Quezon’s speech show that the Phillipine Government along with its officials is responsible and works with fidelity. It can be further inferred that during Manuel Quezon’s time, the Government was top-notch and performs independently of the church and was not influenced easily by conspirators and corrupt officials. The Government was described as “clean” meaning no impurities that can destory the Filipino community were present during his time.

Cultural Context of the Speech

BEING HOSPITABLE. Filipinos are known for their hospitality. They treat their guests warmly at their best. For example, a Filipino mother serves her guests with expensive plates that are just hidden in her cabinet rather than plates used by her family everyday. This is why most foreigners give good impressions to the Philippines because of the very welcoming people. According to a Forbes magazine, Philippines is ranked 8th of the friendliest country in the world.

BEING RESPECTFUL. In the Philippines, they use “po” and “opo” to indicate respect to the elders. “Opo” means yes. For siblings, they use “ate” for sister and “kuya” for brother. Calling an elder by his/her first name is an act of impoliteness and rudeness. “Mano po” is also done by the young to their parents or grand parents. Being respectful is part of Filipino culture.

BAYANIHAN. In times of tragedies such as typhoons and earthquakes, bayanihan can be seen among Filipinos. Bayanihan refers to the spirit of a communal unity, work, and cooperation to achieve a particular goal.

Negative Aspects of Filipinos:

MAÑANA HABIT. Mañana habit refers to the procrastination of such activities. Filipinos often delay tasks on a certain date though it can be done earlier.

BAHALA NA. “Bahala na” is a phrase Filipinos often used when they are not certain about something. It means “come what may” or “living it all up to God.”

UTANG NA LOOB. It is a Filipino cultural trait which means “a debt of one’s inner self (loob)” or debt of gratitude.
